Specializing in Peacocks and Swans​

Welcome to A Different Feather, where I offer some of the most beautiful custom taxidermy peacocks and swans in the world. These unique birds are quite different from what you might find in the average taxidermy shop. When you own one of these splendid birds, you have something that very few others have.

All of these birds are very easy to transport and the peacocks have detachable tails, which make them ideal for weddings, banquets, parties, photoshoots, interior designers, window displays and home decor.

Please have a look around and consider the custom options offered, and if you have some preferences of your own I am always open to any reasonable request. Just call to place your order.

Check back every now and then, as I have some exciting new birds I will be offering here in the very near future.

​This exclusive, extremely handsome Emerald Green Peacock is strutting his stuff for all to see. This is one you really need to see to experience the elegance of a full spread tailed peacock. He is stunning!!!​​

This splendid centerpiece is a real eye-catcher anywhere you place him. He's perfect for weddings, florists, photography, interior design, home decor & storefronts, party planners and antique stores.

This awesome guy is a Java Green Hybrid, aka Spalding, approximately 9 feet 8 inches wide and a touch under 5 feet tall.

Taxidermy Java Green Hybrid birds are rare, beautiful, and pretty hard to find. If you google search for one you might find ONE that wasn't done by me. Now try finding one with a fan-tail.

Exactly.

You can be the only person possessing an Emerald Green

fan-tailed peacock!!!

Unlike other strutting fan-tailed taxidermy peacocks you may find in pictures, (always Indian Blue peacocks, since there are no Greens except for this one), this one will NEVER SAG!!! That is one of the main problems that had to be solved, so that you are not wasting your money on something that will droop and won't look at all like it started out. These tail feathers will ALWAYS remain outstretched, just like his pictures!!!

His tail is detachable and SHIP-ABLE! I have found a way to fold the tail so I can pack it up and ship it anywhere in the Continental USA. It is super easy to open it back up and put it on the bird. This is another reason this bird is so unique. The tail folds up into a box that is roughly 3" x 17" x 63"! The bird is shipped in 2 separate boxes via FedEx for a flat rate of $150.00 anywhere in the Continental USA. This method of shipping saves you a thousand dollars or more on shipping! ​

If you would like to request a custom order of a peacock with options chosen by you such as fantail or closed, hanging tail, direction of head, sitting or standing, and color of stand, or even color of the peacock (see the pink one?), please contact me to discuss it further. I would be happy to do a custom order for you through a separate purchase.

I can also provide custom orders of the black swans and mute swans.

​Who wouldn't love to have one of these splendid birds ?​​​​​​

The Emerald Green Peacock is an elegant, unique, beautiful and rare bird. Each of these Emerald Green Peacocks are hybrids, Java Greens mixed with India Blues. The pictures definitely do not do them justice. They all have iridescent purples, blues and green on their wings alone, and the "scaled" feathers on the neck and breast are stunning!!! Very different from the average India Blue peacock.

Like a Java Green, they are a little larger than an Indian Blue. The standing mount measures about 74-78" from crest to tail. A perched mount is not as tall from the base of the perch to the crest, (because they ara in a sitting position), but they all have a gorgeous rebuilt and detachable tail that is roughly 5 feet long.

His tail is reinforced with strong wire so it will never lose it's shape PLUS, since it's detachable, it makes for super easy moving, transporting, setting up and shipping! Perfect for weddings, home decor, florists, photography, interior design, party planners & antique stores.

The perch or stand, (whichever you choose) has a soft felt backing on the bottom, so you can place him on a piano. table, shelf, etc., anywhere that's high enough to accommodate his 5' long tail without concern for scratches. These stands are versatile, as you can stand him on the ground, on a pedestal or furniture or you can put some "L" shaped brackets under him and put him on the wall.

This incredible bird is shipped in 2 separate boxes with the body in one and the tail in the other. It will be packed with much expertise and care so that it will arrive safely and ready to display.

These Emerald Green Peacocks, aka Spaldings, are NOT listed as an endangered species by U.S Fish and Wildlife. They have all been born and raised in the USA.

These gorgeous Mute Swans make a stunning impression as a table decoration for any special occasion or to display in your home.

Mute Swans often put their heads together to form this amazing heart shape with their necks when they are showing affection for each other. They sometimes raise their wings then and also while carrying their babies on their back in the water.

Swans also mate for life which, besides their obvious beauty, is another reason they are so symbolic and perfect for weddings. They ad an element of elegance anywhere you choose to display them.

The name “Mute Swan” isn't because they are they don't make sounds. They hiss, grunt, snort, snore, yap, whistle and make trumpet sounds, they're just a little quieter about it than other types of swans.

These elegant birds are SOLD AS A PAIR, and are roughly 25” tall, 28” long and 12” wide, although each one is uniquely a little different from the other. They each weigh less than 7 lbs. per piece, and they have a padded felt on the bottom, so they can sit on any surface without leaving a scratch, and they are easily moved for weddings, photos and events.

These particular swans were born and bred in the U.S.A., and much later, died of natural causes, (the polar vortex of 2013).

The Mute Swan (Cygnus Olor) is NOT listed as an endangered species by U.S. Fish and Wildlife, and is “of least concern” on the IUCN conservation status.
